Tract Catalog

Christmas tract for adults. Makoto was a boy when he lost his father and he remembers a simple Christmas with his mother. Other people pitied him because he was fatherless. One year he went to a Christmas party at the home of a foreign missionary lady. She welcomed him at the door with a smile and treated him like a regular boy and not someone to be pitied. He began to feel better about himself. He got into folk music in high school, learned to play guitar and became a member of a band. He remembers one Christmas when he was walking down a neon-lit street he heard a popular song “I Am Dead” on loudspeakers. People around seemed happy, but he felt more lonely. Years later a fellow musician invited him to a concert at a church. There he learned of Jesus Christ. Once during a church service he felt a shaking and a strong presence of Jesus who said to him “Now don’t you know me?” When the pastor asked if he believed in Jesus he said “yes.” He was 26. He feels for years he was lost outside the door of Christmas but Jesus found him and now he is inside where Jesus is always with him. If you are lonely at Christmas, call out to Jesus. God is seeking you too. Quotes Luke 19:10. 125mm x 105mm size. Pack of 50 tracts.

Yet, through it all they experienced an overwhelming sense of God's presence as they trusted Him for each day. They had assurance that their daughter was in Heaven. He explains how death is the result of sin. Yet, for the Christian, it is the entrance to a new world, Heaven. Jesus is he way we can be sure of eternal life and Heaven. He also includes some of his personal testimony of how his friends told him he was a sinner, and introduced him to Jesus. Tract concludes with the lyrics from a song about Heaven.
